King comes through - NBA playoff notes - 05/14/2007

It should be playoffs time now since we see a couple of hard fouls and "incidents" every day it seems like. Today there were hard fouls and physical stuff in both the Suns and the Cavs game. More on the Suns incident later which could be a huge story tomorrow, but the Cavs used Mikki Moore's hard foul on Sasha Pavlovic as motivation and played real well after that. It was a close game, but the King was on point today. He shot 9/16 for 30 points to go with 9 boards and 7 dimes. Nets didn't get a triple double from Kidd and it showed. Kidd still had 17 boards, but just 5 points and 7 dimes. RJ shot 3/12 and Vinsanity shot 6/23 for an all-around sucky night for the Nets. Still Vince had a chance to tie it or win it at the end, but Snow forced him into a turnover. Mikke Moore had a great game with 25 points and he kept the Nets alive. For the Cavs, 13-11 for the Z-man and 19 for Larry Hughes.

Cleveland @ New Jersey - 87-85
Phoenix @ San Antonio - 104-98

Playoff schedule for 05/15/2007

Chicago @ Detroit - Should be fishing time for Chi-town.

Golden State @ Utah - The only way this Warrior story gets better is if they win this one and send it back to Oakland. Tall order though, pun intended.
